BA to provide luxury food and drink for ‘Taste of London
week’
18 June 2009
Unite, the UK’s biggest union, is angered by the news today
(Thursday) that BA are to provide free champagne and smoked salmon
for ‘taste of London week’.
Unite national officer for civil air transport, Brian Boyd,
said: “At a time when BA are trying to take the bread from our
members tables, it is ironic that they choose to sponsor an event
which promotes good food.
“Whoever is responsible for PR within the company really needs
to develop a strategy which is more appropriate for the current
state of BA.”
Unite national officer for civil air transport, Steve turner,
added: “While BA asks their lowest paid to work for nothing,
propose to sell their work to the highest bidder and remove long
standing protections, they add to our anger by supplying champagne
and salmon to their friends. It beggars belief.”
